: But why? I guess you mean that [[WP:NPOV]] extends so far as not calling a task daunting. If that's basically what you mean, I think you're misinterpreting the NPOV concept. The article isn't "biased against" the task of incorporating a feedback loop (not calling it harder than it really was). It's just acknowledging the reality (the malice of inanimate objects, as [[M. R. James]] might have called it). If you removed this way of phrasing, the next problem you would have is that the average reader would have no concept of whether a small problem or a large problem was being faced (being naturally unknowledgeable about the topic). In other words, how else would we succinctly convey that this was a "major surgery" problem as opposed to a "band-aid" problem? — [[User:Three-quarter-ten|¾-10]] 01:20, 13 March 2011 (UTC)
 
:: I think the problem is that this article feels too dramatic, which (in my mind at least) lowers the overall credibility of the article. I don't know exactly how to classify it, but the article feels a little more like an essay, or a school report, then an entry you would see in an encyclopedia. And perhaps the word 'large' would be a synonymous but less dramatic substitute for 'daunting?'
